One of the most important factors in ensuring high-quality work and efficiency in a lab is staff comfort. Adjustable workstations or tables have improved ergonomics over a rigid workstation, which helps to increase comfort while working. It also allows more than one member of your staff to use the station, which directly correlates to a more efficient workplace. Our team at RDM Industrial Products can help you find the adjustable workstations, tables and benches that best fit your workplace.
We have over 40 years of experience supplying laboratory and industrial equipment to all types of workplaces. Ranging from biotechnology labs to electronic assembly plants. Another reason to work with RDM Industrial Products is that all of our industrial furniture is designed and manufactured in the USA.
What Types Of Adjustable Workstations and Tables Do We Offer?
RDM Ergonomic Adjustable Workstation – Model RDM-i-107P-BOOM
We offer a whole slew of tables and workstations with many different adjustability options that add to its capabilities. At RDM we have tables that are specially designed for drafting and other types of engineering work. They come ready with the features needed to be productive in those specialized working environments. We also allow you to customize your adjustable workstations and tables with options such as height adjustability, a tilting top, or even a backlit surface. All of these table types have their use cases, and we can help you pick out the stations that best fit your line of work.
For Drafting & Engineering Tables – Tilt-Top Surfaces Are Key!
Drafting Tables
Drafting tables are the ideal workstations if you need a place to make accurate blueprints or draft up a sketch or two. Most drafting tables have a perfectly flat drawing surface with a tilt-top design. Tilt-top tables allow you to get into a more ergonomic drawing position, which will increase comfort and reduce the risk of injuries. Having a tilt-top drafting table also allows many drafters to use the same workstation, as they can all adjust it to their preferred drawing angle.
We also offer a form of drafting table called a light table. Light tables come with a backlit surface that illuminates everything that is placed onto the working surface. The backlighting helps to highlight small details in drafts or blueprints, which will cut down on your worker’s eye strain as they are drawing or drafting. Backlighting also allows for easy transfers of information from one project to another. Especially if you make use of any tracing medium. Most light tables light up the entire drafting surface, but we also offer models that allow you to customize the drafting surface that is illuminated.
When it comes to outfitting your workspace with drafting & engineering tables – tilt-top surfaces with varied light options are key factors to consider.
Engineering Tables
Our engineering tables are similar to our drafting stations, but they are more focused on practicality. Engineering tables usually have added drawers for storage. They often have shelve or racks mounted above the working surface too. Some engineering stations have tilting tops, like our drafting stations. But the tilting surface is much smaller than what you will find on the drawing-focused counterpart. At RDM, we allow you to customize nearly every aspect of your tilt-top tables. That includes using multiple materials for the different work surfaces.
Another key difference for engineering workstations is that they typically don’t use a backlight for illumination. Most of our engineering stations can be outfitted with an overhead lighting setup that allows for a brighter working environment. Overhead lighting is preferable for engineering work, as you will most likely need to illuminate more than just documents on the table.
Workbenches
RDM Workbenches are the ideal workstation if you need a rigid working environment that you don’t plan on moving often. Workbenches are typically larger than our drafting and engineering stations, which makes them ideal for group projects. They can be outfitted with all sorts of storage like drawers and shelves to help increase the practicality of your workplace.
Customizability of Your Adjustable Workstations
One of the best reasons to work with RDM for all your industrial furniture needs is that we use a factory-direct approach. This allows you to easily customize any equipment we offer to better fit your working environment. Two of the biggest factors to consider when customizing your industrial equipment is if you want it to be mobile, and how many people will be using it.
Mobility:
Adding mobility to your equipment is easy and cost-effective. We use industrial-grade casters to add mobility to the furniture we offer. Adding mobility allows you to move your equipment from one working space to another with little to no hassle.
Height Adjustability:
Having the option of height adjustability is a great option to consider. Especially if you are planning on ordering a shared station. This will allow all of your workers to be as comfortable as possible, no matter how tall or short they are. Having an adjustable height station allows you to change the use of the station depending on what you need at the time. Some workers may prefer a sitting station, while others may swear by the health benefits of a standing station. An adjustable station allows you to appease both types of workers.
Work Surface Options:
One of the biggest ways we allow you to customize your equipment, is by allowing you to choose what kind of work surface your equipment will be outfitted with. Some of our most popular options include plastic laminate, chemical resistant, ESD / static-control, solid surface, solid wood, and stainless steel. Our team of experts can help you decide which of these work surfaces best fits your line of work. Some of our stations can even be had with multiple different surface materials. This is ideal if you are looking for a station that will serve many different functions in your workplace.
